Building Ourselves Up in Faith

More about Building Ourselves Up in Faith

Jude 1:20-21 (NIV)
"But you, dear friends, by building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life."

We are called to build ourselves up in faith. This involves actively nurturing our relationship with God, deepening our understanding of His Word, and engaging in spiritual disciplines that strengthen our connection with Him. By seeking God, studying His Word, and surrounding ourselves with fellow believers, we can experience continuous growth in our faith.

We are also encouraged to pray in the Holy Spirit. When we pray in the Holy Spirit, we surrender ourselves to the guidance and empowerment of the Holy Spirit, allowing Him to lead our prayers according to God's will. Through this, we can experience a deeper communion with the Father, receive His wisdom, and find comfort and strength in His presence.

Lastly, we are reminded to keep ourselves in God's love. This involves actively living out our faith, abiding in God's Word, and walking in obedience to His commands. By guarding our hearts against false teachings and worldly distractions, we can remain steadfast in God's love and experience the security and peace that come from living in alignment with His truth.
